The review of SE-0159 "Fix Private Access Levels"

> What is your evaluation of the proposal?

> Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

Probably 

> Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes, keep it simple 

> If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

Yes Swift 1!

Have been caught out typing private and then wanting to implement an interfaces methods in an extension.
